USMNT coach Gregg Berhalter wary of Oman's attacking threat; USA aim for consistency, lineup won't change much

Head coach Gregg Berhalter plans to name a similar lineup against Oman

The U.S. men's national team hope to improve upon Saturday's lackluster 3-0 win over Uzbekistan when they face Oman on Tuesday but will be up against a different set of challenges when they take to the pitch at Allianz Field in Saint Paul, Minnesota.

"Oman is completely different than Uzbekistan," USMNT head coach Gregg Berhalter said in a pre-match press conference on Monday. "Uzbekistan was a 5-4-1, at times 5-2-3, very difficult block to break down, defending with four players on the wing, very compact. Oman has played a 4-4-2 diamond and they have a very, very dynamic counterattack. Part of the emphasis in this camp was finishing attacks against a low block in Uzbekistan and now preventing transitions against Oman, so it's going to be a great test for us."
